In Office 2003, I have followed steps under Help Menu
for 'create a Word mail merge with Excel data'. When I
click OK on step 8 ("In the Select Table dialog box,
locate and click your list. Make sure the First row of
data contains columns headings checkbox is selected, and
then click OK"), I get an error message "Word cannot open
file" and I do not see any column labels as referenced in
Step 9. Please advise.

Where exactly are you starting from? I tried to discover exactly which
sequence of steps you are using but could not find them.

What do you see in the Select Table dialog box? Do you see a list of the
/sheets/ in your Excel file?
